Welp, time to delete that shit and find replacements. Notepad++ is a solid upgrade over notepad, there must be something similar for paint that doesn’t have a steep learning curve?
All I use paint for is like drawing red underlines under text in screen grabs and shit like that. The most ‘pro’ feature I ever use is when I sometimes misclick the rounded rectangle tool instead of the rectangle tool and I’m too lazy to fix it. I’ll give that a shot tho, thanks.
No shit? I’ve been using Greenshot for screenshots for a while (stupid Foxhole closing tooltips whenever I hit shift for the snip tool hotkey) but had no idea it did anything more than that. I’ll take a look, thanks!
I never understood this one. What kind of course would you be doing that required very expensive paid software, but you didn’t know ahead of time that said software was required. I think the imaginary OP is just an idiot.
Does that even run on windows without a bunch of hoop-jumping and some jank-ass chunky qt-style UI elements? I seriously haven’t looked at GIMP in like 25 years.
Fair enough, I haven’t looked at it at all since I last used linux a couple decades ago, that’s just been my experience with trying to use other linux-native software on windows.

PaintDotNet is what I used to use on windows. It was a great upgrade without being too complex.
PaintDotNet is perfect if you only need some commonly used “pro” features. It’s a relatively easy transition from paint.

Check out greenshot. Has a built-in editor that’s great for quick stuff like this

GIMP isn’t that hard to use for basics.

I personally think that’s the point. It just mocks the Linux Fanboys.
4chan greentext is mostly fanfic, always has been
It reads to me more as joke than something that tries to sell itself as a true story
Lol this resonates with me as a disorganized person
This one always gets a chuckle out of me.
Glad I made you happy!

I’ve been using it off and on for over twenty years and it’s never needed more than running the installer to get it working on Windows in that time…

Works fine every time I’ve used it in Windows, but I do mostly live in Linux now, so your mileage may vary.
Huh. I barely used it when I was on linux, so… shrug
